The Mission
We are looking for a Product-Minded Senior QA Engineer.

- Smart Automation (Creator Mindset): Build tools, bots, and scripts that improve developer efficiency. Use AI to speed up test creation and data analysis.
- Testing Execution: Balance deep exploratory testing (finding complex logic issues) with robust automated checks (Playwright/Cypress) for critical workflows.
- Release Quality: Act as the gatekeeper for quality. You validate that new features meet both technical standards and user needs.

  
  
Technical Toolkit  

- Automation: Expert in modern UI frameworks (Playwright or Cypress preferred).
- API & Data: Strong experience with API testing (Postman, REST Assured) and SQL.
- Modern Tech: Experience using AI tools (LLMs) to assist with coding and testing.
- CI/CD: Comfortable integrating tests into pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins).

  
  
Your Profile  

- 4+ Years Experience: Proven history of leading quality strategy in complex product teams.
- Product Mindset: You care about the user experience and business logic, not just passing test cases.
